Compare with Previous | Blame | View Log
This is a Wishbone wrapper for the Actel user flash ROM (UFR) found on its
FPGAs. This flash ROM cannot be inferred and must be explicitly instantiated.
The instantiated module devboard_flashrom should be in the
backend/actel/rtl/verilog path, and was generated with Actel's smartgen.
See the user flashrom handbook from Actel for further information on the UFR:
http://www.actel.com/documents/LPD_FlashROM_HBs.pdf
This document from Actel says that "the access time is 10 ns for a device
supporting commercial specifications", and the Wishbone interface asserts
wb_ack after 2 cycles, allowing even a 200MHz wishbone bus to access the module
in time, however after PAR, timing reports a maximum access frequency of 14MHz,
so do more testing before relying on this module.
